Hello, I’m interested in sending a welcome message to our large user base as a background process, so: Create the message Queue users Send message to each user, one at a time, one per second until the full list is done Also would like to organize the send by most recent login/visit Does anyone h…

ask.discourse.org output a good starting point, as a rails script: MAX_MESSAGES = 1000 # Optional limit for testing SECONDS_BETWEEN_MESSAGES = 3 # 3 second interval Rails.logger.info "Starting bulk message script..." # Define the content of your message message_title = "Welcome to Our Community" …

@Canapin first that’s an amazing handle…but your response is even more amazing! This is really right along the lines of what we want to do. Some more detail. We have 3.5 million users. We do not plan to send to all of them at once, the idea would be to run this script, maybe for batches of 10k, the…

[imagem] Jacob Peebles: We would like to send this though from an admin with a profile rather than ‘system’, I assume that’s possible? Yes, just replace system with the desired username in the script. Sorry, I skimmed the code, there is no system to replace, so it must be done another way. Y…
